Dream Machines, a European retailer, is now offering pre-orders for multiple gaming laptops powered by the RTX 5000 series. Among the configurations available is one featuring AMD’s Ryzen 9 9955HX3D CPU. Additionally, pre-orders are open for RTX 5070 Ti gaming laptop configurations.
While Nvidia’s RTX 5090 and RTX 5080 GPUs are currently sold out at various retailers, the RTX 5000 series laptops present an alternative option for enthusiasts eager to experience high performance. The laptops, which include the new RTX 5090, 5080, and 5070 Ti GPUs, offer different configurations with varying processors, RAM, and SSD options at different price points. For those in the US, a powerful configuration with an RTX 5090 and Ryzen 9 9955HX3D is available for pre-order at $3,409.99.
Notably, these gaming laptops, sourced from Original Equipment Manufacturers, might face scalping issues similar to the desktop GPU market. Scalpers are actively targeting new Nvidia GPUs to resell at inflated prices, and a similar trend is expected with the RTX 5000 series laptops due to their desirability. Despite potential scalping challenges, these laptops provide a viable option for gamers seeking high-performance hardware.
In related news, Nvidia’s DLSS 4 driver is causing game crashes, urging users to exercise caution. Meanwhile, the exclusive Smooth Motion technology, currently available on RTX 5000 series GPUs, is planned for RTX 4000 series support in the near future.
